Someone at work asked me today where do I find all those presentations about graphics techniques and made me realise that it might not be so common knowledge to people just starting gfx programming. Thread of links.
Siggraph's Advances in Realtime Rendering is a invaluable resource for cutting edge rendering techniques advances.realtimerendering.com
Same with Open Problems in real time rendering course, although unfortunately it did not run this year openproblems.realtimerendering.com
.@self_shadow has been collecting Siggraph courses/papers links for many years: blog.selfshadow.com/categories/con…. Especially interesting are the Physically Based Shading in Theory and Practice course presentations.
Shameless plug for my list of Physically based rendering resources page: interplayoflight.wordpress.com/2013/12/30/rea…
The Journal of Computer Graphics Techniques offers open access to many interesting papers: jcgt.org/read.html
The GDC Vault offers (monstly free) access to Game Developer Conference presentations and videos. gdcvault.com
NVidia's GPU technology conference on-demand on-demand-gtc.gputechconf.com/gtcnew/on-dema… has general GPU programming applications but quite a few related to realtime rendering as well.
.@knarkowicz has been collecting Game Developer Conference links for the past few years: knarkowicz.wordpress.com/category/confe…
.@Digital_Dragons YouTube channel offers recordings on presentations youtube.com/user/DigitalDr…
Kesen collects links for most realtime rendering conferences out there: kesen.realtimerendering.com
The Realtime Rendering's book accompanying web site has many related resources realtimerendering.com
Awesome weekly list of graphics programming links with summary: jendrikillner.com/post/ by @jendrikillner
Finally, follow other graphics programmers on Twitter. Some of them also have blogs which you can follow with Feedly or something similar.
If I have missed any important resources please add it to the list.
The High Performance Graphics conference proceedings is also worth studying, highperformancegraphics.org/2018/program/. You can access previous years by changing the year in the URL.

Author tip: Adding homophobia to your story doesn’t make it feel “more realistic.” It makes it a chore for LGBT people. Unless it’s the point of your story, figure something else out.
Author tip 2: LGBT people are not wizards. We’re not mutants. We’re not aliens. We’re not vampires, no matter how we might dress. Rule of thumb, if your LGBT allegory has different abilities than normal humans, it’s a shitty allegory.
Author tip 3: If an LGBT person exists primarily in your story to show that your protagonist will stand up to bigotry against them, you’ve objectified us. We exist only for your virtue.

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether

UNFAITHFUL SHEPHERDS

"Many years ago, the then president of The National Council of Churches warned that the danger of the great religious awakening taking place in our country, might become fanatical and be carried into our political and business life!
"Perhaps this was a fair assessment, that is, if you conflate #Christian #Zionism with religious awakening. Unfortunately, these "fanatical" #Evangelicals have 0 faith in the #Christian religion to which they give empty lip service--while paying homage to those who hate #Christ.
"For lack of faith in the actual #Bible, #Evangelicals make Scofield’ Notes, (Scofield! A drunkard and a con-man allied with the Satanist, Darby) --#Evangelicals have turned Scofield’s NOTES into a DIABOLICAL FORCE in our #national life.

Today someone wiped away tears as they told me how strong & courageous I was, how my disability made them realise they took things for granted & shouldn’t complain abt their life. I tried to stop them but they didn’t get it. I gave up.

Mind if I get it off my chest here instead?
They were trying to say I was inspiring because I was commuting & working while disabled & in pain. It implies that the more I DO while disabled, the more inspiring I become. The less I do, the less inspiring I become. It implies that my worth depends on how much I do.
In that sense it’s asking too much of me: to MAKE myself worthy by living up to the ideal of the crip who pushes through, overcomes, stays positive.

In another sense it’s patronising, because it congratulates me for living my life. I get a gold star for working! A+ for effort!

Today's topic: Tips for upping your confidence, especially when moving through the world as female/female presenting. How does that relate to writing? Because confidence trickles into everything you do. It's a tool in your toolkit. I had to hack mine. 1/
First of all, some affirmations: You are valuable. You are great. You don't have to conform. The writing world is full of nerds and weirdos, and we have your back. The number one rule? Don't be a dick. That doesn't make you confident. Be the best version of you. So, how? 2/
Confidence is not about being arrogant, cocky, or acting superior. It is about believing that you have value and a voice and a right to exist in the space. It is about maximizing your skills and reach without hurting anyone else. Lifting up, not stomping down. 3/
